the threat deadlines with a blissful route of escape

so it's been a while since i last blogged--which was about me getting sick. so i suppose it'll be understandable why i didnt write anything for a week or so. i didnt really have the energy to sit in front of the computer and force my mind to work. it wouldve been an impossible feat anyway. so instead i practically vegetated in front of the tv, curled up on the couch while flipping through channels on our cable, from history channel, to discovery, natgeo, fox, star movies, hbo, animax, and even cartoon network (yeah, i went there--adventure time anyone?).

i would also like to note how happy and precious i felt when j came over that sunday and just pass the time doing a potc marathon. yeah, im quite satisfied just sitting there on the couch with him watching johnny depp on the screen. eheh~ he even brought donuts. hooray for that~

the week after that, which was last week, was my midterm exams. i didnt really study for anything, but im like that. im not trying to boast or anything, but i think ima pass my subjects. basically, i was still recovering last week so its just me going to school, take the exam, then spend the rest of the day resting and lounging about (mostly with j). but still, i tend to stay away from my laptop even then.

so yesterday, my mom and i went out and she finally bought herself a laptop (finally leaving me with my own) so that's why i finally had access to my laptop now. see the problem before is whenever my writing muse comes for a visit, i cant use my laptop cause she's using it, and by the time she lets me on, my muse is already gone. unlike today, despite being late in arrival, at least i can write the moment i get the urge to. so hello blog again~ i missed you.

anyway, since i basically stayed away from my laptop for more than a week, and with me being a page editor in my college's newspaper, needless to say, i have heaps of work to do, articles to write--five of them actually. eek.

so yeah im trying to get my groove back into writing which is why i started by writing this blog and hopefully this will get my brain fuel burning. so here i am, trying to get up to the demands of my job but all writers know it's hard to force a writer to write without a muse. but im not sure that's gonna matter now since im waaay behind deadline, and while i dont physically seem like it, im panicking over the amount of articles i have to write.

eitherway, next week will be my college's intramurals so that's going to be a full week without classes. let's just hope i find it in me to actually use that amount of time to my advantage. in the meantine, ima go take a quick shower before trying to wrestle my writing muse to stay with me a couple more hours.

i think i'll bribe her with a cup of latte. till next time~
